With football games and stadiums full of energy around the country, this place is less than 1/5th Full. It is completely incomprehensible that while stadiums are full, this place has every other bench isle roped off, but there's not even enough people to fill the other seats. If you want to snooze in the middle of the day this is a perfect place to go. Not only does something feel off here, if you're looking for a place full of energy, to keep you awake during a spiritual teaching, this is not the place. I've had dentist appointments that were more exciting than attending this spiritual center. Where is the youth? where are the parents and the children? One hast to ask these questions, because if it church is dying it is dying because of its leadership and it is not bringing in parental units with their children to teach them what is A very productive message. However the delivery must be as exciting as the message itself. I have been here five times and out of those five times there has not been much in the way of different faces or bodies filling the seats. A spiritual center which can seat approximately 300 is seating about 25 people. That tells me not only does this have to do with the ridiculous mandates and laws against spiritual centers and churches and how many people may attend, it also Makes a very strong statement about how the community Embraces or excepts a particular spiritual center. If you're looking for a snooze fest this place is it. What happened to this place? It started out with an industrious and glorious past. It looks as if it's fallen on hard times. This can only be attributed to the inability of leader ship to pull people in from the community. They need great oratory Speakers, not mediocre ones. It would seem they just don't have what it takes to create a level of excitement around a spiritual commitment. In a case like this, soft spoken demure and whisper type oratory does not keep the energy up or the excitement circulating. A lecture is what is done in a college or University Hall. A teaching must be able to reach the congregation on a personal level. Pragmatic is fine, but lacking exuberance and enthusiasm does not keep the attention of your congregation. Possibly, this is exactly why this place isn't Filling 1/5 it's seats. Unity, standing there since probably the 1950s has not progressed to become a leader and its own community. I've had more excitement getting my teeth cleaned in the dentist chair. I guess this visitor to New Orleans is going to need to find another place where the energy is uplifting and the message is clear and the people filling the seats I'm not on their way out, but are on their way in and ready to live life.

Unity is a warm and welcoming place with many classes and activities promoting spiritual growth.read more
